Waismann Method World-renowned Medical Director - Michael H. Lowenstein M.D.

We are honored to have Michael H. Lowenstein M.D. as our medical director for nearly three decades. As a highly qualified quadruple board-certified anesthesiologist, Dr. Lowenstein is currently the most experienced doctor in sedation-assisted detox in the nation. His qualifications and experience speak for themselves, and we are committed to providing the highest level of care to our patients.

Dr. Lowenstein believes in building a relationship between patient and physician based on trust, which is essential for practicing responsible medicine. Physicians’ ethics must place patients’ welfare above self-interest to establish this trust. To ensure a successful doctor-patient relationship and achieve positive treatment results, both parties must be clear about realistic expectations, abilities, and limitations, especially the treating physician. To achieve this level of honesty and responsibility, the doctor must possess a sense of humility, honesty, and selflessness.

 

**CAUTION – We want to emphasize that the ‘real’ Waismann Method is located only in Southern California, and we are not affiliated with any other clinic or doctors elsewhere. We strongly oppose one-night treatments, as we believe this practice is irresponsible and dangerous.

Reducing services may create more profits for the provider, but it also raises the risks and discomfort of the patient.  Waismann Method team places patients’ safety, comfort, and well-being first, and we are dedicated to providing individualized, comprehensive care to our patients.

Anesthesia Detox and many other Medically Assisted Opioid Treatment Options

Although Waismann Method is recognized as the premier rapid detox center globally, it is not all we offer. However, we believe it is a fundamental responsibility of the physician to tailor the care to the unique patient’s needs; for that, several treating protocols must be available. Doctors should clearly understand each patient’s needs, clinical conditions, and likely outcomes. That is why it is essential to admit patients the day before sedation detox is scheduled. In doing so, our medical team can evaluate the potential benefits, possible risks, and harms consistent with the overall needs, wants, and best interests of each specific patient.

We do not make claims of overnight cures or miraculous reversal of time. Our health care experts understand that some patients might have been using opioids for a very long time. Additionally, the nervous system might have been affected, and it is medically impossible to rapidly identify certain dysregulations or reverse its pre-opioid use disorder state. With that said, we have assisted thousands of patients in achieving an opioid-free state, which allows their nervous system to reverse the effects of chronic opiate use while start restoring itself.

Personalized medicine is the tailoring of medical treatment to each patient’s characteristics. The approach relies on a clear understanding of how the patient’s unique genetic profile, history, and current health status make them a candidate for specific treatment protocols.

Waismann Method Benefits in One Exclusive Location

Patients fly from all over the world to southern California for the Waismann Method exclusive location. Upon arrival, a representative greets them at the airport, where their path to recovery begins.

Waismann Method VS Other Detox Centers

BE AWARE! If the Components Below Are Not Available, It is NOT the Waismann Method ®

Waismann Method Treatment Entails:

* Because opiate and alcohol withdrawal can lead to medical complications, treatment by a multi board-certified M.D. is pertinent.

Navigating Recovery with the Waismann Method: A Medical-Scientific Approach

Navigating through the intricacies of opioid withdrawal demands not only unwavering strength but also an elevated, medically-scientific approach. Waismann Detox™ adheres to a framework of meticulous, medically-supervised in-hospital detoxification services, enveloping each individual with the specialized care they warrant. Moreover, our exclusive recovery center avails itself for additional days of critical post-detox support—both emotional and physical—fortifying the path towards a more secure recovery.

A Scientific Exploration into the Depths of Addiction

Addiction doesn’t merely skim the surface; it intertwines through physical, mental, and emotional faculties, necessitating a scientifically robust approach to management and recovery. While engaging in treatment goes beyond mere addiction management, it intertwines with a careful, analytical addressing of any underlying health complexities. Detoxification, although pivotal, propelling the body towards eliminating toxins, marks merely the initial phase of the recovery journey. A scientifically substantiated detoxification program burgeons as a cornerstone, paving the way towards a resilient recovery.

Engaging in Thorough, Scientifically-Endorsed Treatment

The journey to select a treatment should be navigated with astuteness, probing into the intricacies of addiction and any potential accompanying mental health challenges. While detoxification doesn’t pronounce itself as a singular treatment for addiction, it serves as a critical, foundational progression towards sobriety. An adept detoxification program should seamlessly weave into supportive pathways that underpin the initial post-detox phase of the recovery journey.

If you or someone in your circle is confronting the challenges posed by opioid addiction, we welcome you to reach out. Let’s delve into our scientifically underpinned detoxification and immediate post-detox services together.

 

Reflecting on the Nature of Addiction: Insights from Our Founder

In the words of our founder, Clare Waismann:

“Practicing mindful, compassionate dialogue when it comes to substance use is indispensable. Labeling individuals as ‘addicts’ risks pigeonholing their identity, confining it to their struggle instead of recognizing it as a component of their broader life journey. Moreover, designating addiction as a perennial, chronic disease may inadvertently bolster the economic aspirations of rehabilitation centers and pharmaceutical enterprises, potentially eclipsing genuine recovery avenues. It remains paramount to utilize language that encapsulates hope, resilience, and a genuine potential for healing amidst these complex discussions.”

When someone is struggling with addiction, the first step towards recovery is detoxification. Detox center staff should be highly qualified and up-to-date on the latest scientific principles to provide the most effective care possible. Treatment plans should be individualized to each patient’s needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach. Medically assisted detoxification protocols and emotional support should be available to help patients through this difficult time. Detox centers can give their patients a much better chance of achieving long-term recovery by offering high-quality care.

Various elements must be present to become the most effective detox center. Treatment should follow the principles of the latest available science. On staff, doctors and therapists should have a high education level, board certification, and licensure from recognized American healthcare organizations. The most effective detox centers typically offer several medically assisted detoxification protocols and emotional management. Treatment plans, including protocols and length of stay, should be carefully tailored to their health needs, not pre-set.

Under the guidance of Dr. Michael H. Lowenstein, Waismann Method® has established itself as a leading pioneer and innovator in the field of medical opiate detoxification and rapid detox treatments.
